Wayward Pines Finally Cancelled By Fox, No Season 3 On The Way

Because it took so long to put Season 1 out to audiences, many of the actors weren't able to return in full, or at all, so quite a few narrative jumps were necessary. And even that was a major hassle, since the first season adapted all three books inBlake Couch's novel trilogy, leaving no major pieces of source material to draw from. That would be an understandable reason why Season 3 was taking so long to develop. The first season was able to play with time and setting in laying its mystery out, while Season 2 turned into more of a faction-based creature feature. Season 3 would likely have followed up on the humans waking from cryo to witness how their virus plan worked on the Abbies, as well as following up on that last scene, in which an Abbie is totally holding onto a human baby.
